Untitled. Who needs one?

I would never be a professional artist. Why? Because I don't have perseverance, that's why. I only paint or draw when I feel like it...like this morning, I felt the urge as I opened my windows. The sky was luminous blue and the tree looked dark against it. Then its foliage caught the first rays of the sun. Everything was still and beautiful...yes, far more beautiful than this pastel drawing.

My apologies to nature.

in the mood again

bird of paradise

this one's for those who need cheering up...

i do believe that most of the time, it only takes a little to cheer us up...like how Paupau's smile brightens up my day or even Epol pretending to snore like his Papa...or even his no, papa, no when asked to stop playing with mama's cellphone.

so this original pastel drawing is for all of you...you can even copy paste this one..if you want to..with my permission as long as there's no intention of reproducing it for the purpose of selling. ..i know, i know..i can almost hear it..but who'd possibly want to buy this...this thing?

so, bye for now, folks. see you sometime soon..

about "sexting" and what it did to a dermatologist and an actress

while the sex scandal news about this dermatologist and his partner actress is already a history, the song "careless whisper" inevitable revived popularity is just not that sweet. It just happened that the sex video maniac liked that song. but that's another story.

i just received an email about sexting this morning from one of my friends in the internet. i didn't know there's that term sexting but it sure sounds like what it means. while reading, it reminded me of what happened to that poor girl and how it must have devastated her to realize that she'd become a victim of somebody's sexting. although a victim, she was also caught in action on video which don't make her totally so. i am sorry for her though...and for this doctor who lost his license for his careless and callous acts.

Sexting is exsisting because some people allow it..all for different reasons. Obviously, they're not aware of the damaging and devastating impact of sexting to victims and their families and friends. Or they knew only too well of the harm they're inflicting and still do it anyway. Some people don't deserve to live with the rest of the human race.

AVATAR: The Movie

Yesterday, I finally got the time to watch the movie AVATAR ^_^ and if I have the chance (and time!), I would love to do it again. Yes. Again. Why? Because it's very entertaining. The special effects (or whatever they call it nowadays) are so "real" that you'd think or wish there is such a place where people could live in harmony with nature. Of course, as a good story must have an antagonist to create tension for the protagonist, the fact is: there's more truth in it than fiction...I mean, man's greed is real and so is courage and dignity and love. And AVATAR showed us how beauty and wonder of nature be easily trampled upon by man's greed and apathy.

Again, in AVATAR, there's more truth in it than fiction or in the special effects for that matter.

MANNY "Pacman" PACQUIAO VS COTTO

Right this very moment, the streets of Bohol are wonderfully free from reckless motorcyclists, traffic violators and agents of pollutants...all because they are watching the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Cotto on tv. Forget for a while all the hassles and cares. . . Manny is on tv fighting the newest opponent.

Already there's a rumor that Manny won on the 2nd round...nobody believed me when I told them that Manny was defeated by KO on the 2nd round 2 hours ago and so I told my friends it's the other way around and the more they say no way because Cotto after all is not a mediocre fighter either. Well anyway, the main event is still two more minor ones away, so I'm taking this free time writing this short post. But whatever the outcome, Manny is and will always be a hero in our hearts.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and watch Manny...

Techie, IT and then some...

Five years ago, I didn't know what the term techie means. Then I started working with techies...so now I often hear the words like wifi, skypilot, connectors, UTP, IP address, bandwidth, webhosting, email ad, SEO, affiliates, referrals and adsense to mention just a few. Although I still don't really understand these terminologies, at least I now have some foggy ideas what they are...like rubber boots are not what you think they are and rj45s and toolless jack something hehehe...But really, not knowing anything about computers and IT these days is quite hard on you. I mean almost everyone uses the computer and because of that, you're expected the you use it too. Imagine the pressure that assumption has on people like me five years ago...which reminds me of a story about a Mom begging her son to teach her how to use the computer. Finally, after so many pleas, her son gave in. He let her sit in front of his computer and said, "Mom, this is your login homepage. Now put your hand on this mouse and.."
Her mom unceremoniously stood up and said: just because I don't know anything about computers doesn't give you the right to make a fool of me. What does a rodent have anything to do with computers?

As to where I have read that story, that I can't remember...but the sadness, I can.
